How did my Guerrilla Resumes work? In EVERY SINGLE CASE, the people who used my resumes found jobs.

Want to know another secret? Sometimes, when business is slow, I've been known to write a few resumes myself, to see if I could help others get hired faster.

Mostly I wrote them for friends and family.

High-paying jobs.

Whether your resume impresses readers enough to make them call you is based strictly on emotional appeal - the gut instinct that a hiring pro like me has upon first glancing at your resume.

Sometimes in entirely different industries.

That means the emotional impact your resume makes in the first 3 seconds is CRITICAL.

Because hiring managers decide based on emotions whether or not your resume is worthy of consideration, then use logic to justify their initial decision.

Like Sally, the stay-at-home mom who got hired as a teacher using one of my Guerrilla Resumes.

Now you know.

I call these resumes, which are based on my 23 years of hiring and marketing experience, Guerrilla Resumes.

But it's the reality in our time-starved world, in which most employers have to wade through more than 500 resumes for every job posting.

That means your resume MUST do 2 things.

You can read about her and other success stor....

In a few cases, I charged as much as $500, just to see what the market would bear.

We hiring managers may then read your resume for a minute or two, but we make up our minds in the first 3 seconds, and spend the balance of our time looking through your resume for reasons to justify our initial impression.

It must: 1) Push readers' emotional hot buttons and make them smile within the first 3 seconds - or it gets trashed; and 2) Give readers enough juicy facts to logically compel them to interview you - or the job goes to somebody else.

Good jobs.

That means, if you've been sending out dozens of resumes in response to job postings you KNOW you're perfect for, and employers aren't calling, your resume is not doing one or both of these two things.
